It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a streaming service in possession of a good fortune, must provide the release date for its Pride and Prejudice adaptation.

Netflix has announced that its upcoming six-part series adaptation of Jane Austen’s classic novel will be available to stream on Dec. 3.

This limited series adaptation of Pride and Prejudice stars Emma Corrin as Elizabeth Bennet and Jack Lowden as Mr. Darcy.

Bestselling author Dolly Alderton adapted Austen’s novel for the screen, while Heartstopper director Euros Lyn helmed the series.

“When wealthy bachelors arrive in their neighbourhood, the five Bennet sisters must navigate love, family, and society’s expectations to secure their futures. Jane falls for the charming Mr Bingley, while Elizabeth clashes with his proud friend Mr Darcy – but unexpected encounters and family scandals force Elizabeth to reconsider her feelings and discover the true nature of love,” according to the series’ official synopsis.

In addition to Corrin and Lowden, the show’s cast includes Olivia Colman, Rufus Sewell, Freya Mavor, Jamie Demetriou, Daryl McCormack, Rhea Norwood, Siena Kelly and Louis Partridge.

“Once in a generation, a group of people get to retell this wonderful story and I feel very lucky that I get to be a part of it. Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice is the blueprint for romantic comedy – it has been a joy to delve back into its pages to find both familiar and fresh ways of bringing this beloved book to life,” Alderton said in a statement originally shared in July 2025.

Prosecutors will not seek the death penalty against Nick Reiner, Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan Hochman said on Tuesday.

If Nick Reiner is convicted of the murders of his parents, renowned director Rob Reiner and his wife Michele Reiner, the maximum sentence he would face is life without the possibility of parole, Hochman said.

Hochman said while deciding whether or not to seek the death penalty, the DA’s office examined the aggravating and mitigating factors and spoke to the victims’ family, prosecutors and law enforcement.

Nick Reiner’s siblings, Jake Reiner and Romy Reiner, made their views about the death penalty “very clear,” Hochman said, adding that the DA’s office took “their views into consideration in ultimately deciding not to seek the death penalty.”

Nick Reiner, who turned 33 on Monday, is accused of fatally stabbing his parents in the family’s home in December. The night before the killings, Nick Reiner — who was living on his parents’ property and had previously struggled with addiction — got into an argument with his father at a holiday party and was seen acting strangely, sources told ABC News at the time.

Nick Reiner is due in court on Tuesday for a hearing concerning the unsealing of the grand jury transcripts, Hochman said.

Jake Reiner and Romy Reiner expressed a “strong desire for these transcripts to remain sealed,” Hochman said.

The siblings “basically have said the disclosure to the public and media of the details and evidence of the killing of their parents will cause them additional trauma and harm,” the DA explained.

Hochman said prosecutors “have made it clear to the court that under the standards of whether or not unsealing the transcripts would prejudice the government’s investigation, or prejudice the right to a defendant’s fair and impartial trial, that we do not believe that unsealing the transcripts will cause such prejudice.”

“However, we have deferred to the court the decision on this ruling of whether or not the transcript should be unsealed,” he continued.

The indictment unsealed in August charged Nick Reiner with two counts of murder with the special circumstance allegations of multiple murders and murder by means of lying in wait, according to prosecutors. He also faces a special allegation that he used a dangerous and deadly weapon, a knife. He pleaded not guilty.

Nick Reiner is held on no bond.

No trial date has been set. Hochman said on Tuesday that he believes a trial will not occur before 2027, adding, “when the defense is ready to proceed, the government will be ready to proceed.”

If Hochman had decided to pursue the death penalty, it would have been mostly a symbolic move. While California does have inmates on death row, there has not been an execution in the state in 20 years and Gov. Gavin Newsom placed a moratorium on executions in 2019.

Even more actors have joined the cast of This Summer Will Be Different.

Netflix has announced that Malin Akerman, Megan Follows, Nadine Bhabha and Matias Lucas have joined the cast of the upcoming TV adaptation of author Carley Fortune’s bestselling romance novel.

Akerman will play Aunt Stacy, Follows will play Cheryl, Bhabha will play Farah and Matias Lucas will play Carter.

This Summer Will Be Different will be “a simmering, sun-soaked romance set across multiple summers on Prince Edward Island about Lucy, a young woman navigating her 20s and her first real love with her best friend’s brother, the one person she was never supposed to fall for,” according to the show’s logline.

Sophie Nélisse stars as Lucy in the series. Francesca Reale and Roby Attal also star as Bridget and Felix.

The show’s recurring cast is rounded out by Jordan Rodrigues as Miles Lam, Jude Wilson as Zach, Natalie Brown as Christine, James Tupper as Ken, Tom Barnett as Peter and Celia Owen as Joy.

Dane Clark and Linsey Stewart serve as the adaptation’s creators and showrunners. They also both executive produce the show alongside Fortune.

This Summer Will Be Different has wrapped filming on location in Prince Edward Island and is currently now filming in Toronto. The show will span 10 episodes.

“I fell in love with Prince Edward Island first in the pages of L.M. Montgomery’s Anne of Green Gables and again when I visited with my best friend in my early 20s,” Fortune told Netflix. “That vacation, the beauty of the island, the warmth of its people, and the friendships that sustain us are the foundation of This Summer Will Be Different. I’m thrilled to bring this sweeping love story to the screen with Netflix and to transport audiences to the glittering shores and windswept beaches of PEI.”

Nélisse and Bhabha previously worked together on season 1 of Heated Rivalry. Akerman stars in Netflix’s The Hunting Wives, while Follows is known for her roles in Anne of Green Gables and Reign.

Travis Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs opened their 2026 regular season Monday night at home against the Denver Broncos in front of a star-studded audience.

Kelce’s wife, Taylor Swift, was spotted at the game sitting alongside Tom Cruise, who attended the couple’s July 3 wedding at Madison Square Garden in New York City.

The NFL shared a video on social media of Swift and Cruise sitting inside a box at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri, writing, “Taylor Swift and Tom Cruise in the house for MNF.”

In addition to Cruise, Swift watched the game alongside her parents and mother-in-law.

Monday night’s game marked Kelce’s first regular-season game since marrying Swift this summer.

Arrowhead Stadium played a major role in Swift and Kelce’s relationship becoming public.

On Sept. 24, 2023, Swift surprised fans when she attended a Chiefs game against the Chicago Bears and watched from a suite alongside Kelce’s mother, Donna Kelce. The appearance came shortly after Kelce publicly revealed that he had invited Swift to see him play at Arrowhead.

Swift went on to become a fixture at Chiefs games during the 2023 season, attending 13 games, including all four of Kansas City’s postseason games and Super Bowl LVIII, where the Chiefs defeated the San Francisco 49ers.

She returned for multiple games during the 2024 season, particularly at Arrowhead, and attended the Chiefs’ postseason run through Super Bowl LIX in February 2025.

By the 2025 season, however, Swift’s presence became far less visible. She was not seen at the Chiefs’ season opener in Brazil and largely kept a lower profile even when attending home games at Arrowhead.

In an interview with ESPN’s Chris Berman ahead of the Monday Night Football game, Kelce described what it was like to get married during the offseason.

“It was the best night of my life,” Kelce said in the interview, which also aired Monday on Good Morning America. “Marrying Taylor was, you know, it was more than I could have ever dreamed it to be because of all the people that showed up and the amount of love that was in the air.”

He continued, “It’s been unbelievable.”

Kelce is beginning his 14th season in the NFL, but told Berman he has the “desire” to keep playing.

“I’m still kind of sitting here like I don’t want to let this thing go … I want to keep playing until the wheels fall off, I always say,” he said. “I still have the desire to go out there and compete, and I still think I can compete at a high level, I love this game so much that, you know, I’m I’m not ready to you know go into that next phase yet.”

Kelce is playing this season on a one-year contract. The Chiefs beat the Broncos 31 to 10.
